Bruno Mars caps off a banner year with a series of new promo photos. The suave singer works his charm in the black-and-white images photographed by Andreas Laszlo Konrath. Fresh off his six Grammy nominations including Album of the Year, the Hawaiian heartthrob has been named Billboard‘s Top Male Hot 100 Artist of the Year, Top Male Radio Songs Artist, Top Male Digital Songs Artist, and Top Male Adult Pop Songs Artist, among other accolades. He doesn’t plan on stopping, recently returning to the studio to work on his sophomore LP.

“I want to have fun on this next album,” he told Ryan Seacrest. “I think that’s the most important key, especially now that I’ve been on the road and am playing a lot of shows. I have a little more of a vision than I think I did with Doo-Wops & Hooligans.”
